THANK YOU FOR REPLYING TO MY POST!

Im in my twenties, so ive past puberty! if its the dark stage of my soul..its been a long time then. I felt like this for a couple of years now, actually more so when i took amrit?!?! i dont get it. These last couple of weeks have been hard..felt soo empty!! i keep feeling that im supose to do something..i dont know what. How do i get out of the dark stage? Do all people get it? Why does it happen? Test from god?

==============================

I'm not sure about this "dark stage of life" business. Everyone has their ups and downs - that is why the Guru has given us the Shabad. With the Shabad and meditation, your spirit (by which I mean how you feel) can be uplifted. There is no such thing as a "test" from God. My advice would be to see if you can start doing paath (Japji is a good place to start) and listening to AND understanding kirtan (get MP3s off of this site, translations from www.sikhitothemax.com).

good luck!
